Some Houston families pass down recipes. Others pass down a burger order. In one corner of the city’s northwest side, there is a burger counter tied to grandparents’ high school days, first dates, and old car hop photos from the 1940s and 1950s. People who grew up with it still talk about the sauce, the root beer, and the poppy seed buns as if they were family members.

5 Best Italian Restaurants in Houston, Texas that Will Make You Feel Like You’re in Rome

Houston, Texas — a city where the sun bounces off glass towers and shotgun houses alike, where the air is thick with the perfume of magnolias and the sizzle of something delicious on every corner.

Houston is a city of dreamers and doers, of oil and art, of rodeos and rockets, where every meal is a gathering and every table a crossroads.

I like how nobody seems to mind that the collection jumps across centuries and continents.

3 Bar Etiquette Mistakes Bartenders Say You Should Avoid For Better Service

There’s an unspoken code at the bar—and if you’ve ever wondered why a bartender seems less than thrilled to serve you, you may have broken it. Manners go a long way.
